I honestly don't know who is winning the afc south but I doubt the runner up is a playoff team.
Bills could be a 10-11 win team just based on their easy schedule. 6th seed not out of the question.
Don't even need the bobble. As @XLIX posted, when Jackson originally caught the ball and before his second foot hit the ground, the OOB Bill touched the ball. That right there makes it incomplete even if it were never subsequently bobbled. Don't know how they missed that on review.The Bills player had his hands on the football while standing out of bounds, before Jackson secured it. A ball is incomplete if any player touching a ball that hasn't been secured (i.e. "in the act of catching") is outside the field of play. A player standing out of bounds is considered out of bounds for the sake of the rule:
"Any forward pass (legal or illegal) is incomplete and the ball is dead immediately if the pass strikes the ground or goes out of bounds."
So as soon as Jackson bobbled the ball and the Bills receiver, who was standing on the white stripe, touched it, it was an incomplete pass. Complicated ruling but should not have been a pick.

Hard to say how good they are. With a healthy Jules and better play calling, I don't think this game would have been as close. Let the season play out and we will see what they are like next time around.
Some of those play calls looked like they came from the Bolshoi playbook, not an NFL one.
Let's ignore the AFC South. Is it likely the Bills beat out the Chargers (almost certainly a wild card team) and the runner up in the Central for a playoff position? I guess it's possible but it does not seem at all likely.
The Central?
I don't understand why everyone is so dismissive of the Bills. Their defense was stifling and deserves respect. The Bills offense, while terrible on 3rd downs, still racked up 375 yards which isn't too bad. Their bonehead turnovers handed over the game.
The Billdos are legit all right...a legit 8-8.

I don’t know how legit the Bills are, but I bet Brady hammers them in the rematch.
